I'll be watching it, Geoff Hall. I need to catch up on the show first.
Maurice Vaughan it's brilliant, Maurice and beautifully written. There's lots of clips and episodes on YT.
Thanks, Geoff Hall. I just subscribed to the Bluey YT channel. I'm sure there's going to be a lot of Bluey movies, like Nickelodeon did with SpongeBob.

What went wrong? I'll save them some money on this research: no one wanted to see it! (Not every Marvel or DC property is going to attract an audience).
If it was a movie where Kraven was hunting Spider-man through the streets of New York, I would have been there on opening night. But honestly, even as a comic book fan who enjoys the character of Krav...
